Prices seem to have settled at around £30-£40 although some with bids originally placed a few days back are going for more. |

Someone I know has a Kew Gardens 50p amongst their collection of special issues. They will be keeping it, although they didn't realise that it was commanding such a price. It was just one from pocket change and put by some time ago as 'different.' |

I wish I had got one about 5 years ago for fifty pence |

The really high prices are for uncirculated versions in mint condition. Circulated ones seem to be bidding around £70, but still a few hours left on those I just looked at so could easily top the ton. |

It says there are 49 bids ;-) |

Had quite a few 50p's last week, now spent them, think that was one of them, remember thinking it was different. Wasn't meant to be mine :-( |

There are over 30 on ebay at the moment. Last week you could have got one for £15 outright but word seems to have got around that they are in demand and this has pushed the price right up. |
